  • Clinton wants us to pay for bad mortgages?

    Hillary Clinton wants the feds to fork out $1 billion to help people that may be in forclosure.

    Source : http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070807/ap_on_el_pr/cl...

    Why should we pay for others mistakes? Hasn't anyone learned not to bite off more than you can chew?

    People should know what they can afford and buy accordingly. I should not have to pay more taxes because someone can't budget. If they want to buy a house with adjustable mortgage, they should know the consequences.

    What's your opinion.

  • Should US have a national ID card?

    With the illegal immigration issue and stolen identities should the US have a National ID card?

    I think we should and here is why.

    1. Social security numbers were meant ONLY for social security. With a national ID card identity theft would be harder. (As long as they don't use your SSN for the ID)

    2. With biometric information (fingerprint, retina scan, etc.) you can verify the user's identity.

    3. Verification of persons receiving public help.

    I would like to know what other people think. Please let me know your thoughts.

  • Student loan burden?

    I went to college after the military. I had a hard time adjusting after school. I worked in the field I studied in only 2 years. Now have had odd jobs for last 7 years. I have not had to pay my loan because I'm not making any money. But the interest and everything is making the loan balloon. Any suggestions.

    Just to keep clear. I am honorably discharged and I graduated with 3.998 gpa.. I went into the military at 17 and didn't know if I wanted a career of it. Since I didn't pay into the education program I get nothing out.

  • Do you think this violence will increase?

    I have noticed that so many different sides think they are the correct ones that nobody (governments, politicians, religious leaders) thinks that they are wrong.

    I have noticed that by which media outlet (broadcast, cable, newspaper, internet) you watch you will get a different story. For example: I seen on American network T.V. that 2 americans were killed. On the internet I read (Australian news) that 2 Americans were killed and 22 Al Qeada were killed. That in itself shows truth but bias. If you do not give the whole story then why bring it up in the first place.

    These people want nothing more than us (USA, Isreal, Western Societies) dead. If Isreal can not defend itself, then why or how exist. If the USA can not defend itself, then how can IT exist. At the same time if the Shiite can not defend himself how can they exist.

    Your right to exist relies on your right to be human. If you feel that you are the one that is ALWAYS right, you are doomed.

    But if your wrong.........

  • Border fence or technology?

    Would a fence along the Mexican border help the situation or should they use technology?

    Technology such as www.remotesystems.us it seems would be better than puting a fence up that would also stop the diverse wildlife from migrating.

  • Lib or Con? Why the hatred?

    I have noticed on Answers that many of the questions and answers are slanted towards the label "liberal" or "conservative". When our country was founded on individual freedom and expression, why the divide now. The differant political parties have divided this country to a point that you either have to be one or the other. I feel when we all look at an issue and discuss it without the words: liberal, conservative, democrat, or republican showing up in the answer or question, we get more information. Will we ever be just American again?

  • What is this??

    I found a web site and wonder if people are putting stuff like this on the border? And if so, will it change the number of people coming across? Or do they just shoot it?
